Summary
Soldiers assigned to U.S. Army Alaska, Alaska Army National Guard's 49th Missile Defense Battalion at Fort Greely and an Air Force fighter from 773rd CES competed in U.S. Army Alaska's (USARAK) 2013 Combatives Tournament, Friday, March 22, 2013, at the Buckner Physical Fitness Center on Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson. Combatives, or hand-to-hand combat, is an engagement between two or more persons in an empty-handed struggle or with hand-held weapons such as knives, sticks or projectile weapons that cannot be fired. Proficiency in hand-to-hand combat is one of the fundamental building blocks for training the modern soldier. (U.S. Air Force photo/Justin Connaher)
